Chapter 8 - First Encounter with the wild beast

This is the third week of the month, and it was early in the morning, when Theo woke up, and went to the stream to fresh up, he look at himself at the water and check his body, Anybody can see the changes in his body, His muscle are tightly pack, it isn't too much of muscle like gym guys, till then his body was well defined. If he wear his clothes nobody will see that changes, but when he removes his cloth anybody can feel the well define body of his.

After washing himself up, Theo went back, ate his breakfast, and start doing his daily routine of Training. While doing the exercise of pull ups, push ups, etc. he doesn't see any noticeable changes, so he decided that he will stop doing this exercise, and he will only swing the sword and practice the one slash move from the way of the sword.

As usual, after finishing his training, which was noon Theo took some rest and ate his lunch.

finishing what must be done, Theo start tempering his body, It was in the last stage of basic body tempering, which is bone and it was the spine that was left. when Theo open his eyes after doing his body tempering, the sun was about to set, so he went to the forest, to check the trap. His body tempering of the spine was partially done. as you might think why, its because the spine is the most difficult part of the body to refined, and even the slightest mistake can make you cripple for rest of your life.

Theo was in the stream, cleaning the hunt when he heard a loud roar, he can feel that the roar of the beast was so close to him, so he took the knife, readied himself for any unexpected event. As he was readying himself for the unexpected event , he heard sound from the bush, and he saw the beast running straight towards him, pulling up his claw, Theo was stunned and he cannot move his leg, to dodge the attack. he felt fear for the first time, he can see in the eyes of the beast that he was the prey and the beast was the predator. Theo thought about his parent, and whispered in low voice," i wondered thats how my parents felt when they met the beast for the first and the last time".

when the beast attack near Theo, suddenly his eye perk up not wanting to lose his life, as he have long way to live, he has dream to fulfilled, tightening his hand to the knife, Theo shout," damn you beast". noticing that he cannot escape from the attack unscathed Theo put the knife between him and the beast, tilting the tip to the left side so that he can parried the attack.

when the attack hit Theo, he was push into the stream. the stream was not so deep, only knee cap. Seeing the follow up attack of the beast, not wanting to experience the power of the attack again, Theo dodge the attack with a hair breadth of line. This time Theo kick the paw of the beast making him slide in the stream and distancing himself from the beast, as well as making the beast off balance.

Theo got up and jump to the shore, this time Theo got a clear look of beast, it was a black brown bear. He saw the beast struggling to get up, as the paw of the beast was hit by Theo making his body turn upside down. Theo was strong, but not so strong as to take the beast attack head on, but to make the beast off balance even picking the body of beast up in the air. it was easy.

Seeing the beast struggling, the Theo rush to the beast taking the opportunity. he jump high toward the head of the beast. Theo stab the knife straight at the eye of beast making the beast one sided blind. The beast got up and roar in pain, shaking his body, to make Theo throw up from his body. But Theo doesn't want to miss such good opportunity, so he move his body to the back of the beast, away from his paw, clutching the neck with both hand, trying to strangle and break the neck of the beast. The beast notice that he cannot reach Theo from his paw, and also cannot shake Theo off from his body. he slam his back at stream with bammm... making water splashhh... all over the shore.

Theo puked some blood, as his body was in pain when the beast slam, cause inside the stream was some tiny rock, making Theo's back hurt and gaining some internal injuries. Not wanting to give up. Theo strangle the beast so hard, that the beast roll his body and got up to do the same thing he did just now. Noticing the beast was about to do, Theo clutch his one hand to the fur of the beast the other hand at the knife that was stuck at eyes of beast. he push the knife, so hard deep inside, until it reach the brain of beast. killing the beast once for all.
